EDITORS COMMENTS
Kanuni Sultan Suleyman Bridge, also known as Buyukcekmece Bridge, is an architectural marvel of the Ottoman Empire, located in the European suburbs of Istanbul, near the lake of the same name. This magnificent bridge was commissioned by Selim II and designed by the renowned Ottoman architect Mimar Sinan. Completed in 1566, the bridge is a testament to the engineering prowess of the Ottoman civilization during the 16th century. The bridge spans the Bosphorus, connecting the European and Asian shores of Istanbul. The engraving by Lemaitre, Danvin and Lepetit, as depicted in the 1840 publication "Historia de Turquia" by Jouannin and Van Gaver, showcases the grandeur of the bridge in its full glory. The bridge features two arches, each adorned with intricate designs and ornate decorations. The ramp leading up to the bridge is flanked by oxen, symbolizing the civil descent of the bridge. The bridge was a crucial piece of infrastructure during the Ottoman era, facilitating the movement of carriages, carts, and chariots across the Bosphorus. The bridge's construction marked an important milestone in the history of Turkish architecture, showcasing the Ottoman's ability to blend functionality with aesthetics. The bridge's name, Kanuni Sultan Suleyman, refers to Sultan Suleyman the Magnificent, who ruled the Ottoman Empire from 1520 to 1566. Suleyman's reign is considered the golden age of the Ottoman Empire, marked by military conquests, cultural achievements, and architectural wonders. The bridge stands as a symbol of Suleyman's reign and the Ottoman's enduring legacy.
